Maestra Selection No. 3 is Maestra Tequilera Ana Maria Romero’s homage to the tradition and history of tequila. Incorporating tools and techniques from the spirit’s past, the artistry of this tequila brings forth flavors and aromas recalled from its very origins.

Fully mature Blue Weber agaves de semilla grown in Jamay, Jalisco, by the Lago de Chapala shoreline are slowly cooked in an oven crafted using volcanic stone from Popocatepetl. The agave is crushed by a tahona made from the same stone, then fermented in wooden tanks with the fibers. Finally, the spirit is carefully distilled in copper pot stills before stabilizing in clay pots for 15 days.
